Chapter 183: Your Majesty
In the twenty-third year of Jing'an, the bloody storm set off when the Empress Dowager passed away has not yet passed away from the sky above the imperial city, and the powerful Pingzong has been eager to exercise the long-lost power of life and death in his hands, wanting to completely liberate himself from the control of the coercive mother and restore the heroic posture of his emperor.
It's just that his prestige can't be played at all, and even the abolished prince he wants to do the most was stopped by a group of ministers.
If the prince can't be abolished, then the prince can only die.
He couldn't break through the East Palace, which was guarded like an iron bucket, and in the huge palace, he had exactly the same mind as him, but he was a little smart, that is, the biological mother of the third prince he had been very fond of recently, Concubine Xiao.
The family banquet personally arranged by Pingzong was set up in Concubine Xiao's happy dormitory.
Jing Hao half-bent down to put on Ming Jinghan's clothes, he had a serious illness after returning from the horse farm before, and it took many days to retreat, and even the original baby fat was reduced a lot, and his face was still a little sickly pale.
The huge Chongming Palace, the palace people standing in the corner didn't even dare to take a breath, Pingzong's intentions were simply revealed, His Royal Highness went to the banquet, and he didn't even know if he could come back alive completely.
Ming Jinghan stretched out his hand to ask Jing Hao to help him put on his clothes, pursed his blood-colored little mouth and said nothing, but when Jing Hao helped him dress and was about to withdraw his hand, he suddenly held her hand.
There was also some slight trembling.
He was afraid, afraid of that blood relative.
"Your Highness," quietly squatted down, just in time to be at eye level with him, and the hand he held held forcefully held Xiao Douding's little hand into the palm of his hand, warming him with a somewhat cold temperature, "Your Highness, don't worry too much, the queen will protect you." ”
The crown prince was deposed, and the fate of the queen can be imagined.
For the sake of profit, she will also protect this only bargaining chip with all her heart.
Ming Jinghan pursed her lips and didn't speak, staring at her with beautiful eyes, not hiding the dependence in it.
"Naturally, the minions will accompany His Highness."
Feeling that simple words could not appease him a little, Jing Hao let go and hugged the four-year-old Xiaodouding into his arms, he hesitated before wrapping his arms around her neck, leaning his face on her shoulder at a little distance, letting her hold him, and walking all the way out of Chongming Hall without "prince majesty".
There was still some distance between the Huan Dormitory Palace, Jing Hao let go of his hand and let him down, took a step back and lowered his gaze and stood with his back bowed, Xiao Douding in front of him held his head high and never turned his head again.
The mighty prince relied on the Huan Sleeping Palace, and the three princes who were drinking and talking happily in the seat immediately sank their faces, revealing undisguised greed, but Concubine Xiao on the side greeted her with a smile, invited the queen who came at the same time to the main seat, and sat down respectfully.
Halfway through the feast, the various exquisite dishes piled up in front of Ming Jinghan did not move.
Pingzong on the main seat frowned, and pointed to the eunuch beside him who came over with a plate of puff pastry duck, "The prince looks at his bad appetite today, you might as well try this appetizer." ”
Ming Jinghan stood up and saluted and thanked him, but after taking it, he put it aside.
Pingzong's face suddenly became gloomy, and even the atmosphere in the hall became tense.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't like this dish, right? It's all to blame on the concubines, because the three princes like it, they made their own decisions and let them prepare this plate, but His Royal Highness might as well taste it, maybe it can still be eaten. ”
It was Concubine Xiao who came out to break the atmosphere, she glanced at the third prince who was teasing the maids under the seat, and the latter reacted in a daze, stretched out her chopsticks and stuffed the puff pastry duck from Mingjinghan's plate into her mouth.
"Eleventh Emperor Brother let's try it, this taste is admittedly good."
There was a provocation in his eyes.
Ming Jinghan didn't even look at him, "Sage Cloud, you don't say anything when you eat, you don't say anything when you sleep." It's better for the Third Emperor Brother to keep his mouth shut. ”
The third prince was about to get angry, but Concubine Xiao, who was walking quickly, stopped him and smiled very kindly, "Your third emperor brother is kind-hearted, but he fell into the complaint of His Royal Highness the Prince, but this dish is innocent, the sage also said, the elder gives, can not resign, His Royal Highness the Prince is in the face of your father, you should also taste it." ”
"Han'er is the prince of a country, and he doesn't want to eat a dish, Concubine Xiao, you have so many words, when will it be your turn to take care of your sister-in-law's affairs if you are not a lady in the main palace?"
The queen's last question was already filled with gloomy anger, the harem's * method is that drinking the same tea may be poisoned and nothing, a plate of fragmented dishes, there are more places to start.
It's hateful that the emperor is so indulgent to sluts.
She glared at Concubine Xiao fiercely, and turned her head to look at Pingzong on the seat, "Han'er's wind and cold have not healed, but this puff pastry duck can't eat more." ”
Pingzong opened his mouth and was about to speak, but when he met Concubine Xiao, he quickly winked at him, and the words on his lips changed suddenly, and put on a smirk, "Since the wind and cold have not healed, then give this manna tea to the prince, don't say that I am the father and the emperor, and I don't take the prince in my eyes at all." ”
His words are blocked to death, if Ming Jinghan doesn't drink this tea, it will become ironclad evidence that he doesn't take his father in his eyes.
The smile on Concubine Xiao's face became more sincere.
The queen glared at her fiercely, "I'm afraid I can't drink this tea, Han'er ate Xiangke's food last night......"
Before she finished her words, after getting the news that Her Majesty was going to hold a family banquet, the Empress was urging to come to the rescue of the Empress and asked to see Her Majesty outside the door, saying that there was an important military event.
It doesn't matter whether there is a big event or not, it's just that what Pingzong wants to do has been exposed, and if something happens to the prince at this time, his charge of killing his son will be on his head forever.
Pingzong swept the dishes on the table to the ground with hatred, "The prince is so sick that so many dishes can't be eaten, what are the people serving in Chongming Hall doing?!" ”
He turned his head to stare at the people of the Chongming Palace who were kneeling on the ground in a hurry, and when his eyes swept over the quiet at the top, he obviously saw that Ming Jinghan, who had been maintaining his composure just now, moved slightly, as if he was going to get up to block the eunuch.
The memories of the previous horse farm came flooding back, and Pingzong remembered this eunuch who dared to use the Empress Dowager to press him and ride a horse to save Ming Jinghan.
The love between master and servant is also performed here.
His heart was relieved, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at Jing Hao, "This is the steward of Chongming Palace?" The failure to serve the prince is a dereliction of duty, and he dragged me down and hit eighty boards. ”
Eighty boards are beaten, and nine out of nine is already a dead end.
Mingjing stood up suddenly, opened his mouth and was about to speak, but the queen grabbed him tightly, pressed his head and sent the holy driver, and turned back with a look of hatred that iron is not steel, "How much effort did the queen mother put into protecting you, you actually want to fight against your father for a slave?" ”
She waved her hand and glanced at Jing Hao, who had been pulled down, in a completely gracious tone, "Okay, when the queen mother waits, she will send someone to help her find a coffin for a thick burial." ”.
Jing Hao was groggy and heard Xiao Douding's angry and hoarse tone, and it took a long time to open her eyes, and saw Xiao Douding, who was no longer than her waist, squatting in a mess, forming herself into a ball, and a dull and suppressed but howling cry came out of the ball, like the sorrow of a small beast.
"Your Highness......"
Her voice was soft and hoarse, but Ming Jinghan, who was crying seriously, reacted in an instant, quickly ran over and threw herself on her bed, holding her dead and burying her face in her chest.
Although it is a bit out of place to say this now, Jing Hao is still relieved that her breasts have not developed.
"Your Highness," she moved her numb thighs in pain, "help the minions turn around, and it hurts to lie down like this." ”
She broke out in a cold sweat before turning herself over, Ming Jinghan glanced at his bloody back and legs, and big tears fell from his eyes that were already red and swollen from crying.
Jing Hao was a little distressed by his crying.
"Your Highness, don't cry." She raised an arm, originally just to help him wipe away his tears, but Xiao Douding was stunned for a moment and quickly got under her arm, obediently put her arm on her shoulder, turned into an embracing posture, and carefully drilled into her arms, eager to stuff herself into her arms.
"I'm useless, I can't protect myself, and I can't protect Xianxian."
The little milk voice that cried hoarse was soft and even more pitiful, and his hand was clutched on Jing Hao's chest, as if he was writing the last straw, "Xianxian, I hate him, I don't want him to be my father again." ”
"He asked me to watch others beat you, just to make me cry and beg him," the hatred was completely different from the child's soft tone, "I don't ask him, I hate him, sooner or later I will kill him and kill them all." ”
"If they beat you, I'll kill them all!"
"Your Highness." Jing Hao softened his tone under his cold killing intent, and he was already eager to let a four-year-old child go to see the cane punishment of Pingzong with a thousand knives, and she had not seen Ming Jinghan in the process of execution, that is to say, when Ming Jinghan came, she had been beaten unconscious, and the picture he saw was only more terrifying.
Seeing the flesh and blood of the people he cares about flying but can't stop it, it's not a pity that Pingzong is hated to death.
"It doesn't matter if His Highness hates him, but His Highness shouldn't hate those who execute," Jing Hao patted his quilt and coaxed him softly, "Those people don't know each other with the minions, and beating the minions is just following orders, if His Highness hates them because of this, and the people who care about them hate His Highness because of this, when will this account be settled?" ”
In the end, she was seriously injured, and a few words were slow and laborious, but as an emperor, if she developed a tyrannical and vengeful temperament when she was a child, she would suffer later and be a person in the world.
At that time, it will be the one who single-handedly harmed him into such a Heizong will be proud.
"And Your Highness is not useless, didn't Your Highness help the minions turn over just now? Lying down like this, the minion doesn't feel much pain. Jing Hao touched him and looked up, and it was rare to have a little bright eyes, "The slave may need medicine now, I don't know if I can trouble His Highness?" ”
Ming Jinghan nodded vigorously and carefully followed her instructions.
Lying on his stomach, he carefully protected his front while exposing his wounds, "The minion's wounds are a bit terrifying, Your Highness won't be frightened, right?" ”
It just so happened that some of the frightened wounds frightened Ming Jinghan, who wanted to look away, shook his head weakly, and at the same time forced himself to keep his eyes on the blurred flesh and blood, and carefully spilled the medicine in his hand.
Jing Hao gritted his teeth and endured the pain, "The slave is so ugly, Your Highness shouldn't remember it at all after seeing it, otherwise, I'm afraid that the slave won't dare to walk around in front of His Highness in the future." ”
Ming Jinghan shook his head vigorously, "Xianxian is not ugly. ”
He paused, feeling that it was better for him to follow Hyun-hyun, "I won't remember Hyun-hyun's ugly appearance now." ”
Jing Hao was distracted, and he wanted to complain that he had just said that it was not ugly, but he opened his mouth but changed his words, "Promise you won't dream in your dreams?" ”
"I promise."
After the difficult medication, Jing Hao's consciousness was already a little blurry, and she only felt that Xiao Douding got into her arms again, rubbed her chest, and obediently hugged her tightly and closed her eyes.
"Hyun-hyun, I'm useful too, right?"
Jing Hao nodded in a daze, and when she lowered her head, the corner of her mouth touched something warm and soft, and she was carefully licked.
He rubbed hard against Hyun-hyun's chest, licking the corners of Hyun-hyun's mouth while he was drowsy.
Ming Jinghan woke up from his sleep, sat on the bed and recalled the scene in the dream, but what he remembered most was Xianxian's exposed back, and the delicate and fair skin still retained in the uninjured places.
He reached out and touched it when he applied it.
The young man, who had just understood what the slimy touch between his legs was, sat on the dragon bed, and all kinds of emotions came up in his heart, but he turned his head and involuntarily looked in the direction facing the window.
It was a small courtyard that he deliberately asked people to open out, facing Xianxian.
He remembered the white and delicate back and the dark black hair scattered on it that he had seen after he had broken in that day.
Hyun Hyun is by his side, and Hyun Hyun is in his dreams again.
